Description
Potassium iodide (abbreviated as KI) is a chemical compound that serves as a protective measure against radioactive iodine exposure, a byproduct of nuclear accidents or incidents. When taken orally, potassium iodide floods the thyroid gland with stable iodine, effectively blocking the absorption of radioactive iodine isotopes.
